It was on your website looking for the kit to this baby soap and I can't find it do you still sell it
just tried to make this soap along with the video. The clay was really had to mix and Im thinking I did not mix long enough because after I put into the molds the oil came to the top and started to drip over. It's still spectated. It was thick so at trace but something went left. Any thoughts?
I added this soap to my line and people loved it.they bought it up for their children and grandchildren. It's a great recipe.

I ordered the kit for this soap, made it a month ago and it is actually the soap we are using at home for body and face; we love it! I love your book, this is the first soap I make from your book! Thanks for your videos! And for people who are thinking about getting a soaping book get her book "Pure soap making" it is a beautiful book and has amazing recipes!
Oh thank you so much, it means the world to me! =)

little mingle I brought that book, it's great, I'd definitely recommend it to people.
Thanks so much!
Does it also include other molding products like bath bombs?
I love your soap,plz how do I get your book,am from Nigeria
I just received my beginners kit to make energizing orange 🍊 soap a couple days ago. I will use no other brand of soap!!! The steps were so easy and my soap came out so beautifully and cleans so well. I was so proud of myself I started just giving out bars to my family to try and love as well as I did. I will always come back to bramble berry to purchase more items on my soap journey. Thank you Anne-Marie 💕
I love this recipe! The ingredients are almost exactly the same as I would've put together myself. Great job
Just made this lovely little soap for our new great-niece. It took nearly 10 minutes to lightly trace... double checked the quantities and all good there. The differences were omitting the Sodium Lactate and adding the clay and oatmeal to the melted oils before the lye solution. I did this because with a new recipe I'm never sure how quickly the batter will trace.
I just recently bought your book Pure Soap Making. I highly recommend this book to anyone, its very detailed and informative. I am new to soap making. I have not made any soap yet but learning by watching your videos. Your videos are the best. Thank you for all your help
Thank you so much for the videos - we always learn so much. We appreciate all that you do.
Love your videos! You inspired me to make soap over a year ago, and now I make soap nearly every week! When I watched your video for the first time, I wasn't overwhelmed; I was inspired! That takes talent, Soap Queen!
Wow, thank you! That means so much to me. So glad you're enjoying the videos, and making soap! =)
Simple and beautiful!
Have been looking for a soap base without propylene glycol and palm oil. Propylene glycol and Palm oil which are detrimental to life and wild life. This is a good recipe. Thanks Ann Marie!
absolutely love this ❤ I'm definitely going to try it !
Have fun Sarai! =)
Steps are quite straightforward, I will definitely try.
Thank you so much. I will try this formula.
I'll be trying this recipe! it looks so luxurious!
Have fun Lynne! It definitely feels luxurious on the skin. =)
We love your videos I haven't made them yet but I am going to soon!!
i love this recipe so much when i was making soap for the first time now i rewritten it to make it my own.
Wow i love this,I'm watching u from Egypt 🇪🇬 😍
Thank you! I hope this works for my 6 month baby.
I can't wait to make this.
Super great video as always 👍 thanks.
i made this soap 2 weeks ago but I make a mistake with the clay :( I don't know why I add 3 TBS!!! I test a little end of the soap and its so drying for my hands but for the body its wonderful. the soap when its wet become so slimy but I can live with that :p , next time I hope to make it right.
OMG, lovely soap! I will definitely use the recipe! My best friend will have a baby soon, so I think that will be a great gift idea. And this baby/stork stamp is so cute XD Have you had it custom made or is it something you've bought online? If so, may I ask where did you found it?
awwww the stamp is so adorable
I love your candles and soap.!!
Thanks so much Devyn!
I have very sensitive skin so I will try this with my mother btw I love your vids😋💖💖
Thanks Reece! I hope you love this recipe as much as I do. =)
I am a beginner and I have just started watching your videos and find them very inspiring. I love this recipe and would like to try it. I have few questions though- Can I replace Bentonite clay with Kaolin clay in this recipe? As I stay in India and the temperature here is in upper thirties, will the soap turn out good or a bit soft?
Lovely soap. I use Olive oil in all my soaps. It is very good for the skin. Love your videos :)
Thank you so much, that means a lot to me!
Soap Queen TV by Bramble Berry Is this recipe safe enough for newborn babies? I'm having a baby and planning to make some gentle soap for him instead of buying grocery products..
So AWESOME!!!!❤️❤️
"Confit" is a great cooking technique to give flavor to the oil/fat.
Thank you for the recipe,i have a sensitive skin
You are The best
Hi Anne-marie! it would be so awesome if u could make some more facial and spa soap videos!
PS: love the videos, really great quality!
Thanks for your suggestions Sophy! =)
That would be lovely! With pure natural ingredients for our facial tissue should be treated like a rose petal. This baby recipe can be used on face too?
Hi Ann Marie. I have just body lotion but I used candilla wax instead of the BTMS 50 on your website, as I find it lathery, not sinking in to the skin well. I stirred the wax, oil and distilled water until it was completely cool, but it separated. Can you tell me at what % can I use BTMS 50 at it's lowest because I don;t like my lotion lathery. Thank you.
Lovely soap Ma'am
Lovely .. I am gonna try this
Have fun! =)
I LOVE the glasses :3
Can I use regular olive oil? And use marigold instead of chamomile? I’m new to soap making.
Can standard olive oil be used in this soap?
I love to see how you’ve transformed everything in 4 yrs
Thank u very much I liked it
Thank you for watching!
Hello Soapqueen, I want to make a bentonite clay soap which method gives the best results a) adding the b clay to the oils or as you did in this video mix with 4.3ozs of water then add at trace? Please and thank you
Hi Anne what's the Ph level for baby soap and how much you maintain in your recipe?
Hi, I just made my first order on brambleberry last night and my first batch of soap today! I can't wait to try this one on my 8 month old, but I am curious if you think cocoa butter will work as well instead of shea butter. Great video! Thanks!
Oh thank you so much for your order! You can use cocoa butter in place of shea butter. Cocoa butter is harder, so the soap will be a bit more firm. It will still feel great though. =)
Remember to run your recipe through the Lye Calculator after any substitutions: www.brambleberry.com/Pages/Lye-Calculator.aspx
This post on substituting oils in cold process soap is helpful as well: www.soapqueen.com/bath-and-body-tutorials/tips-and-tricks/how-to-substitute-oil-in-cold-process-recipes/
I really want to try the oatmeal milk and honey fragrance oil. Is the Brambleberry recipe for this soap available online? I assume it would be called Oatmeal Milk and Honey soap. Thanks!
I really love your videos x
Thank you Sophie, that means a lot to me. =)
Could you substitute the bentonite clay for kaolin clay and if yes, do I need to adjust the amount? Will it change the soap outcome?
Hi! Thanks indeed for this amazing tutorial. If I choose to use an essential oil what will be the measurement for this batch.
Thanks in advance.
Oatmeal and honey 🍯 fragrance oil.
I made this soap and it is currently unmolded and curing. At 92% olive oil, is 4-6 weeks going to be long enough? Thank you for a great video
I am making this recipe (tripled to 3.75#) and baffled by how much total water will be in the recipe: almost 12 oz plus another 12 Tbsp in the clay. I would love to hear if this is accurate before I make the recipe. I am tempted to just do the 4 or 5 Tbsp in your original smaller recipe. Any advice here Soap Queen? I did just make this recipe, increased to 3.75#, and I chose to use part of the recipe water to soak the Bentonite instead of adding additional water - so we'll see. I am also wondering if you insulate this soap or just let it saponify at room temp uncovered.?? Another unknown, ha. Hmmm hmmm, what to do. Thanks for the great video, and I look forward to seeing how mine turns out.
Can I make soaps with edible olive oil or edible flaxseed oil?
If I did cold process I would make this for my little brother, he has eczema and has been looking for a good gentle oatmeal soap for years now.
Can I use cocoa butter in place of shea butter?
where can I purchase this soap :(!!!! please let me know
Is it possible to make liquid soap from home? Love the videos by the way! I find them so relaxing!
It is! This kit has everything you need to get started: www.brambleberry.com/Liquid-Soap-Guru-Kit-P4829.aspx
So cute!!
Thank you Eliana!
Can I use without the benotin clay?
Oh MY Gosh!!! Ann-Marie! This is one of my new faves for my two little Grandsons. Thank you so much. I can't thank you enough. Love your show. Quick question. Is there any way to make no tears soap for the little ones?
Finally a soap for baby. I have a question: Can I use your infused method for melt and pour soap? Thank you :D
Hi there! Just to clarify, are you wanting to color the soap with infused oil, or infuse it right in the soap? Let me know and I can help you out. =)
Soap Queen TV I just want to infuse it in the soap like fragance oil :)
The infused oils don't scent the bars very much at all, and may not color them very much either. I would recommend using a fragrance or essential oil instead! We have a great Chamomile Fragrance Oil you may like: www.brambleberry.com/Chamomile-Cybilla-Fragrance-Oil-P3363.aspx?
You can use our Fragrance Calculator to find out how much to add to your recipe: www.brambleberry.com/Pages/Fragrance-Calculator.aspx
thank you
You're welcome!
can you put oatmeal Bits in this soap?
Where can i buy such a stamp? Tx for sharing
Do you have a website or Etsy where you sell the actual soap? I have very sensitive skin and would love to try a bar :3 I'm currently using Johnson and Johnson's baby soap and the fragrance in that burns my skin 😫
We don't sell the soap you see here, but we do sell the supplies to make it on BrambleBerry.com! You can also find lots of great handmade soap on Etsy.com. =)
What was that box above you on the shelf
Hi Anne-Marie, I have received your book with your recipe but I wanna know what’s the percentage of water you’ve used?
Love your tutorials,very well explained. Please I have two questions : Can I use extra virgin olive oil for this soap? And if I don't have resealable tea bag,can i just pour the chamomile inside the oil directly to infuse it?
Yes and yes! Extra virgin olive oil should work well (a small test batch will let you know for sure), and you can infuse the chamomile directly in the oil. Just use a strainer to remove it afterward. =)
We did that in this infusing post: www.soapqueen.com/bath-and-body-tutorials/tips-and-tricks/how-to-infuse-oils-with-a-crock-pot/
Soap Queen TV Thanks a lot. Appreciate your response
Great video
Hello how is the lather on this soap ? Does it created nice bubbles ?
I want to make this.
Can I achieve the same results with the melt and pour process?
Nope
Hii can I use this soap for newborn baby ?
Hii mam...can we use glycerine and goat milk base for making soap for babies?
Can you grind up steel cut oatmeal instead??
Hello! Could this be made into ice cube shapes and after cured, be melted back down, adding essential oils/colours later? Like a soap base?
How did you mix the lye in the water
I want to make your gentle oatmeal baby soap. After watching your video; I looked up Bentonite clay and it contains lead. I’m sure that is not good for anyone especially babies. Is there one that is lead free?
I loved the video
I'm thinking of buying the book but I want to ask first, does it have ingredient for shampoos and conditional.
It doesn't have shampoo and conditioner, but it does have 32 cold process recipes with lots of different techniques! =)

Could you use regular organic extra virgin olive oil for this?
Yes, pomace and virgin are the same type of oil but pomace works better
Hii, this was beautiful video!!!! Thank you so much..
would like to know whether I can order all the necessary things from the website which you have recommended from India?
I know this is for babies but I am definitely making this for my eczema 👌
did it work? I am looking to do it for my daughter's eczema
I love the bloopers... Lol
Can i use nylon tea bag ?
Could you use a 100% chamomile tea if you can't readily get chamomile flowers?
If so how many would you need? And could you infuse the oil the same way?
And do you really need to add Shea butter to the soap?
I want to answer your question because I've made this soap with my own ingredients.
Yes, you can use just chamomile tea bags if that's all you have. I do it all the time.
I don't use any of the expensive butters or oils in my soaps and the substitutes work quite well. My soaps are very mild. What I use instead is shortening, like Crisco's new formulation, which uses hydrogenated palm & soy oils. The resulting soap is vegan, mild and, though technically not what the industry calls Castile soap, it's still just as mild. However, be aware that you need to read the ingredients to make sure it has no tallow or lard, only because they can a bit harsher than veg oils. Use olive oil at 80% and the shortening (at Walmart they carry a Great Value shortening that similar to Crisco) at 20% and you'll have a lovely bar of soap.
One more thing. A soap with this much olive oil has to cure for at LEAST 6 months before it's apt for use. The reason is that olive oil, even pomace, takes a LOONG time to harden enough so it doesn't just dissolve in a month. I use filtered seawater (from the ocean!) and even then my bars aren't ready to use before those 6 months. Just a heads up.
Happy soaping!
Do U have a recipe for M/P? Thanx
I will making this for a new born baby, is it possible to add chamomile or lavender hydrosols? If so, how much do I add in there?
I typically add my Kaolin clay directly into the lye water...are there any disadvantages to adding the Bentonite or Kaolin clays directly to the lye water instead of mixing separately?
Thank you!
If that works well you can definitely add the clay to the lye water! We add it at trace to help prevent acceleration. If you find your soap doesn't move too fast, clay in the lye water will definitely work. =)
Cute😍
Wow wow wow
Happy Thanksgiving!!!🦃. Lynne
Thanks Lynne, I hope you had a great one! =)
Hello soap queen TV, please I would like to know if I can make this soap with melt and pour soap.thank you
Yes, you can. Shea Butter and oatmeal soap base.
Can you share the link, if available soap without lye for babies, toddlers.. Please.. If not..m requesting you to make a video
Did the soap in this particular demo go through gel phase or what were the darkish spots in the small end?
This soap didn't gel! We left the soap at room temperature. I believe the spots were just a bit of soap leftover on the cutting board. You can gel it if you like. Either way works fine. =)
Read more about gel phase here: www.soapqueen.com/bath-and-body-tutorials/tips-and-tricks/gel-phase/
can you please make a video on face wash base making & could you please also tel me what are the differences we can make in face wash for oily skin & dry skin while making the base?
Thanks for the suggestion, I'll definitely keep that in mind! You may also like this tutorial on facial bars for dry and oily skin: www.soapqueen.com/bath-and-body-tutorials/melt-and-pour-soap/cleansing-soap-dry-oily-skin/
Awww thank you so very much I would definitely like to watch it :) & thank you so very much for considering my request:)
It was very nice mam but here at my place it is very difficult to get most of the things you have mentioned in the recipe & if I buy online my costing will be interested so m not getting what to do :(
You may check teachsoap.com/forum to see if anyone knows of a supplier near you!
Oh!! that's so sweet of you I'll definitely check this out & let you know too if this could help me:)
can you use those additives-clay and oatmeal in melt & pour?
You can! I would recommend mixing 1 teaspoon of both into 1 tablespoon of rubbing alcohol. Then, mix well and add 1/2 dispersed teaspoon at a time. =)
See how to use clays in this melt and pour tutorial: czcams.com/video/2qwgbt59L9Y/video.html
Soap Queen TV thank you!
Wow! I was was wondering the same thing! Thank you so much.
I read a separate article on your soap blog regarding the different clay choices and their properties (www.soapqueen.com/tag/bentonite-clay/). It mentioned that the use of bentonite clay is good for oily skin but can be drying for those with normal to dry. Would adding the bentonite clay dry out the skin? I'd like to make this for my daughter who has bad eczema and I don't want anything that will be drying? Do the other ingredients used in this recipe "cancel out" the absorbing properties of the clay?
Hi. would the 99.9% rubbing alcohol be ok to use
I love your vids
Completely unrelated to this soap, but I have a soap question. I make a green tea and fig bar with your oval soap mold. I ALWAYS get soda ash on the tops. I even spray with the isopropyl alcohol I purchased from your site. Is there something that can help it?
Absolutely! It can help to water discount the soap, increase your temperatures to 125-130F and pour the soap when it's a bit thicker. All of those steps help prevent soda ash. If you still get it, don't worry. You can steam it off or wipe the soap with an old nylon to remove the ash. =)
Read more about preventing soda ash here: www.soapqueen.com/bath-and-body-tutorials/tips-and-tricks/explaining-and-preventing-soda-ash/
Super mam
